Mystery and silence waits at dusk.
Soon its shadows will tuck me in,
and a silver moon, curved and hooked,
will come to rock and let me cry.

Beyond the edge of seas,
tides flow unhurried, carry my wish
with each swell and rise, hum
a lullaby under a moon more like a sun.

Yet I awake to find life’s precious wishes
nestled in some dust clouds, unreachable.
Sun catches and holds my face to the water,
reflecting desperation turned into agony.
